“We are very happy with our performance,” said Hart-Lewis. “Our goals for this competition were to perform and make the crowd feel our program more than just see it. I think we have accomplished that as a team.”

“Although it wasn’t the performance we hoped for, we have a lot to be proud of,” said Kauffman. “We attacked our skate and we were aggressive. We put out everything out there and made some mistakes. But we prefer that strategy than to be passive and safe.”

Competition ends Saturday with the free skate.
